    How to avoid the chronic bolide understeer? Kick the rear end out. Over steer assistant really changed this car from borderline unusable to really fun. The 350 and 390 are a riot. The 320 GTT kinda sucks in corners though the rear tires are so fat and gearing so long its hard to induce oversteer then when you do its kinda twitchy. Honestly with the introduction of oversteer assistant the production cars could do with a slightly fatter front tire to promote more front end turn in instead of just plowing understeer

    Main problem with the GTT is it's just too stiff generally, which makes it snappy

    No, I believe there is a BeamNav slot somewhere. I've had it mounted several times. In fact, I believe this specific vehicle even has a duplicate slot for it.
    Off? There wasn't any to begin with! :p

    It would be nice to have the metric turbo gauges to use bars instead of psi as a pressure unit. I mean, nobody uses "cubic inch" as an everyday unit in Europe.
    And the screen of the radio with the black interior (EUDM) is off, while it plays "I just called to save I love you" by Steevie Wonder in the cream colored interior (USDM). I do not know if it is on purpose or not.

    Additional point: an Italian sports car of this era would have a dog-leg pattern shifter (or reversed H-grille). The Stambecco has one.
    And lastly, how the transfer case/center diff works in the Gambler is unclear. The "hi/lo locking transfer case" is kind of misleading. Or at least, I, was confused. The "low" is also "locked", and the "high" is open center diff. In the game files it says "lsd", but it seems to behave like an open diff. In any case, it would be nice to have additional info displayed when toggling the diff mode, like "4WD High"/"4WD Locked Low".

    It's not really just a reversed H pattern. Signature feature of a dogleg 5 speed is 2nd and 3rd being right next to each other in the middle row, for quicker low range shifts. First row has reverse on top and 1st on the bottom.

    Thar's what I meant. In French we say "reversed pattern", but it is dog-leg. The interior of the Bolide looks based on the 512BB, and on the shifter you can see it has a dog-leg.
